Braylon Mullins (2025) SG - to UConn

[SlammySammy]

Braylon reminds me a bit of Damon Bailey.....although Bailey played at every position in his career and Mullins had a better supporting cast, IMO.....

2 things: 

A) Pretty tough to see him bailing on a LOI with Dan Hurley, but DeVries being able to walk in and offer: 1) the chance to go where he really wanted to be, 2) being a cornerstone of rebuilding the IUBB legend and becoming one himself in the process, and, 3) minutes and shots until his tongue’s dragging the ground, and 4) having way more money, makes for a pretty compelling argument.

B) God, how brutal an indictment of Woody would a Mullins flip be? If DeVries with no previous relationship with him can pull that off, yeah he looks like a hero for good reason, but that’s basically the kid saying  “I’d have stayed home for anyone but that guy.”  That would be one giant F you.

Kind of like Gordon and Davis.

My question does these recruits enter some of the NIL before they get to campus. If they do then I think it would be pretty bad to decommit for another school. Why I ask is my great nephew has heard that Mullins has already got some of his money but didn't know if it is true.

Given the number of decommits that occur -- especially with coaching changes -- I don't think that is an issue.

IN high school athletes are prohibited from receiving NIL, so that would be a problem.  And don’t believe college student-athletes can receive NIL/rev share until they are enrolled.  But I’m sure Mullins knows what he is due to receive from UConn.

Yes, I believe in Indiana high school athletes can't receive NIL and stay eligible.  But in many states they can.

Sisley probably made a little cash then.

bump.  This has gone quiet.  With the Conwell, Dix developments, is this something of interest still?  

Seeming more unlikely day by day.

IMO nothing is going to happen until at least next spring.  Numerous reports we've been in contact with the family but haven't really heard anything more than that.

Spring 2026 probably, other than that, nothing will happen unless some crazy situation develops.

This! He was taking photos with Donavan Clingan up in New York this weekend.   Straight from his dad, “it’s not happening”.   Thanks Woody.  Maybe next year.

Mullins aside, Hurley needs a good KO.

Hurley to the Denver?  Anyone else hearing this?  Seen it was on Trilly and now on X that talks are in place.

If he didn't take the Lakers job I doubt he would take the Nuggets job.  Also I don't see his style of coaching working on the NBA

Yea I can't see it either, but I hope it is true.

I mean..  I would greatly prefer coaching the Nuggets over LAL. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

I will eat my hat if Hurley leaves UConn for the NBA unless it’s for the the Knicks, Celtics or 76ers. He’s never going out west.
